Trains, Trains, and more Trains!

Choo. Choo. Trains are cool. Thank you to all who graciously shared your trains with us! The trains were a hit!! Even for the girls. :)
Not only did we learn about trains but we learned (social skills) how to give and take, negotiation, sharing and team work. :)

Card making

The children busily made Valentine's day cards today. Ms. Taylor prepared the cards by cutting out heart shapes with contact paper attached to them, the children added tissue paper, sparkly confetti or small cut out hearts. The message inside the card said, "Happy Valentine's Day! Love, ______."
